Page Objects

Actions

Page Objects tend to either perform actions or find items on the page. Seleno Page Objects provide a number of Actions and Locators that you can use.
## Navigator
Used to perform actions that take you to another page, such as clicking a button or a link, or navigating to a URL. There is a strongly typed option to navigate with a controller expression using routing. Page Objects expose the Navigator class with the `Navigate` property.
Navigate.To<RegisterPage>(By.LinkText("Register"));
## Page Reader ###
Read values from the page using view model based strongly typed methods. Page Objects that extend `Page<T>`expose the Page Reader class with the `Read` property. For example, to read all fields into a new instance of the current model type (`T`) in a page you can use the `ModelFromPage` method:
var model = Read.ModelFromPage();
`Read` is currently only available with the generically-typed page object for now, but if you want this functionality with non-generic page objects (by instead supplying strings for the id) then to add an issue to our Github site so we can prioritise it.
## Page Writer ###
Write values to the page using view model based strongly typed methods. Page Objects that extend `Page<T>`expose the Page Writer class with the `Input` property. For example, to write all fields from a model of the current type (`T`) from the form on a page you can use the `Model` method:
Input.Model(modelInstanceToFillInFormUsing);
`Input` is currently only available with the generically-typed page object for now, but if you want this functionality with non-generic page objects (by instead supplying strings for the id) then to add an issue to our Github site so we can prioritise it.
## Script Executor ###
If none of the above meet your needs then you have the ultimate control by executing JavaScript with the Script Executor class. Page Objects expose the Script Executor class with the `Execute` property.
return Execute.ScriptAndReturn<TReturn>(string.Format("$('#{0}').attr('{1}')",Id,attributeName));
